Online College Basketball Betting Lines

On March 11th the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee will share the 68 teams competing for this year’s college basketball championship. Also known as “Selection Sunday” this is the day that the brackets positions for the tournament are released to the public. The difference between March Madness and the rest of the college basketball season is that a loss in the tournament results in elimination. Round after round teams will be sent home as they work their way through the Sweet 16, Elite 8 and then the Final 4 where the championship matchup will be decided.

The teams currently leading the league include Virginia, Michigan State, Villanova and Xavier. As we have seen in the past being on top does not guarantee a win. In fact upsets are a huge part of the tournament and the potential outcome. Purdue is a prime example of how a team can drop spots as their recent 3 game losing streak has shifted them from 3rd to 6th in the AP Polls. Michigan State on the other hand has gone from 11th to 3rd in the polls.
